lessor

/ˈɫɛsɝ/ noun B2

a person who rents out property

Word Origin From Latin 'laxare' (to loosen) — a lessor is the one who 'lets go' of property, leasing it to someone else. The same root gives us 'lease' (the contract), 'lessee' (the one who receives), and 'relax' (to loosen again). The idea of looseness is also in 'lax' (not strict).
